This tiny little butterfly, no bigger than my thumbnail, has proved a real test of my patience to capture! Very flighty, he would not settle long enough for me to capture him. After about an hour of crawling along the ground after him, I finally managed this shot. Tomorrow there will be another butterfly upload, of another tiny little chappie, which proved just as difficult to capture.

Superb close up, as always.
Please have a look at my Members Exhibitions entry as it is a view of the nature entries to our club 2008 exhibition by loads of great photographers. Which is why none of mine made the selection.lol.

I applaud your patience and persistence and congratulate you on a superb photo considering the size of the butterfly. You have managed to capture it with great detail. We have very few butterflies in Western Australia so am always interested in those on this site.
